Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 272: Must be a fan for life! (Please subscribe, please read)

Feeling the "thrust" coming from this wall of sound, Li Li was a little surprised now.

He had heard the solo part of "Fade To Black". Although he admired Bian Lang for being able to write this guitar arrangement, when people in the industry asked about it, he said, "It's not bad!"

Everyone also knows what he means by "okay", that is, he can pick up the score after listening to it a few times.

But who is he? He was a guitarist who hung out with the first group of old rock musicians in China when he was a teenager. He formed his own band before he was 20 years old. Although he didn’t leave any classic works, his guitar skills are still outstanding. It is very popular in the hearts of the older generation in the industry.

That is to say, the original owner had a cold temperament before and didn't like to pay much attention to or inquire about things in the industry. In addition, this person's band disbanded early. Later, he stayed at home to trade stocks and play by himself. He would only do it when he was in a good mood or invited by friends. He came out to record accompaniment for others, so the original owner didn't know that such a person existed.

Now seeing Bian Lang play this solo with average sound, the shock to his senses was completely different.

Being able to compile and being able to play are completely different things, and he knows this better than anyone else.

As for Pan Jianhu, he didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment.As a producer, he knew very well that to compile such a section, it would be impossible to achieve without his own real skills.

This kind of solo is not the kind of chord progression that can be repeated. Whether it sounds good or not depends entirely on talent. Some people can't come up with this kind of melody in their mind even if they give him this playing ability.

Another point is that everyone can also hear that this is a psychedelic metal style that has never appeared before in Bianlang's style.

Psychedelic metal originated from the sudden change of thinking in psychedelic culture and belongs to the same period as garage rock and folk rock.A transitional period from early blues-based rock music to progressive rock, art rock, experimental rock, hard rock, and even heavy metal.

Psychedelic rock musicians strive to exaggerate the dreamlike feeling in their music, creating a batch of music with strange beauty in unconventional ways.Psychedelic rock also incorporates non-Western musical elements such as ragas and sitar from Indian music.

In the original place, psychedelic rock was deeply influenced by hippie culture. Its momentum reached its peak in the late 60s, and a large number of distinctive psychedelic rock bands emerged in the United Kingdom and the United States.Psychedelic rock had a profound impact on rock bands at that time and later, and its characteristics would be completely different in different regions and bands.

The most famous representative band is Pink Floyd!
Bian Lang's biggest regret about this band is that he has never seen Shui Ye and Lonely Ye on the same stage. When Shui Ye came to Shanghai to perform, the specific ticket price was 280. Bian Lang remembered that the cheapest one was [-].

Although the attendance rate is only about [-]%, the rock circle lineup in the audience is unprecedented.

Lao Cui took the lead, He Yong, Luan Shu, Tang Chao, Xiao Wei from Maitian Shou, Aunt Liang from Second Hand, etc. were all present. It is said that Hu Yanbin and Ding Wei from the pop music circle were also present.

After watching the whole concert, Aunt Liang also chatted with him: "This concert has more directly allowed many domestic musicians to calmly think about themselves after completing an appreciation. Shui Ye's comprehensive control ability on the scene is admirable." , I personally think this is the most valuable performance for foreign musicians coming to China."

Bian Lang felt that this was an understatement. Although Shui Ye's performance at that time was incomparable to those super scenes in foreign videos, it was the magic city stage with more than 10000 people. Shui Ye even specially demolished an area for the effect. Seats to place audio equipment.

Although the 62-year-old Shui Ye was on stage with silver hair at the time, he was radiant. The stage, lighting and coordination with the band were so perfect that die-hard fans could not help waving their arms and screaming loudly.

Especially when props such as "astronauts" and "pink pigs" floated out from all directions on the big stage, Chinese fans truly experienced what a so-called master-level performance should be and how shocking it should be.

While Bian Lang was playing, he recalled the scene during Shui Ye's London tour of "The Wall" in 2011. Lonely Ye appeared on the stage with Shui Ye without the audience knowing at all.

When Mr. Shui finished singing "Can you show me where it hurts? Can you tell me where it hurts?", he turned around and looked at the top of the giant screen behind him.

When the light focused on the top of the giant screen more than ten meters high, the figure and voice of Lonely Man appeared simultaneously: "There is no pain, you are receding...The pain has disappeared, and you are disappearing..."

At the moment when the scene flashed, the most eye-catching line on the video on Station B was: "Crazy! Tears!"

Bian Lang saw on the video this pair of happy enemies who were as happy as old children. The moment they laughed away their grudges after 26 years of falling out, he was so shocked that his tears couldn't stop flowing down. He also looked forward to watching Shui Ye and Shui Ye once in his lifetime. The scene where Lonely Master reunites.

Although Mr. Lonely has been criticized by fans, this performance can be said to be overturned in terms of guitar performance compared to other "Comfortably Numb" performances. The problem of unstable rhythm does not require a professional, as long as fans who are familiar with this song can hear it. came out, but it still didn't stop Bian Lang from admiring the scene.

When Mr. Lonely was asked about this incident afterwards, he admitted without any hesitation: "I admit that I made a mistake. It was because I stood too high and I was a little scared..."

For this band, which was founded in 1975 on the original earth and disbanded in 2015, and has existed and been active in the world's rock music circle for a full 50 years, Bian Lang feels that it is difficult to express his respect for them with more gorgeous words!
Especially when Shui Ye was interviewed before crossing Bianlang, he angrily criticized the CNN reporter: "Wanwan is a part of China. If you don't know, then you haven't read enough. Go back and read more!"

Bian Lang felt that this band and this old man must be fans for life!
Under the intertwining of various emotions, Bian Lang's performance also fluctuated and sublimated with the ups and downs of emotions.

Whether it's pushing, vibrato, hooking, or finally tapping, it feels just right... to laymen, the word "awesome" can be summed up, but from the perspective of an expert like Li Li, this is not true. What an awesome guy!
This time, his evaluation after listening to it was not good, because he knew that this section could not be picked up by ear.

Or to put it another way, if Bian Lang didn't score this section himself, it would be difficult for anyone to pick out an accurate original score by listening to or watching the video.

Only then did Bian Lang stop. Before the first-time listeners had recovered, Lili directly asked: "Bian Lang, what's going on with the four 4nd notes in the second measure?"

For this question, because the original Earth rendition of this ending is basically difficult to reproduce the flavor of the original version on these four notes, so countless folk and professional gods have analyzed and explained it. .

边浪自己总结出来的是：“第一个音3弦9品的E用推弦释放，这个地方要注意之前推弦上去的音Gb是八分音符；第二个音3弦7品的D用勾弦；第三个音4弦9品的B用下拨；第四个音弦7品的D用上拨，这样听感会轻一些，还方便接后面同样在3弦的两个下拨的音……”

Hearing this detailed answer, Dili suddenly felt like he had seen a ghost.

After he asked the question, the picture he made up in his mind should be Bian Lang asking him: "Which place, let me read the score!"

Then Bian Lang read the score based on his own answers, and recalled and explained what was going on and how it should be played while playing.

But now that he was talking about it, he directly suspected that Bian Lang had not remembered the score, but had directly engraved it on his retina!

The Rolling Stones were no less shocked than Ti Li, because the band score Bian Lang gave them did not include the lead guitar part at all, but directly recorded an accompaniment demo for them.

Now I just said this kind of details without even thinking about it. How familiar do you have to be with the music score to be able to reply in seconds like this?
They knew that Bian Lang could write songs without lag, but they never expected that he could control the details of the guitar arrangement to such an extent!

Huang Kai: "Bian Lang, please give me the bass intro of "Flying Bird" for a while. When you say that, I feel a little unconfident!"

Dayong: "No, Bian Lang, you have only been doing this for a long time. Why do you feel like you have been playing this part for half your life when you say this!"

Hua Yan: "Brother Lang, come and play this keyboard part for me too..."

"This song has to be arranged. I will sing it over and over again and we will work out the details."

Dili was still thinking about Bian Lang's previous words, and his hands started to itch for a moment: "Bian Lang, do you have the music score? I want to give it a try."

His voice was actually quite loud. Maybe when he said it, Pan Jianhu laughed: "Ah Li, what did you just say? Please speak louder. Don't you know that your ears are not very good at playing music? "

"Brother Hu, this is boring!"

"No, I've been listening to monitors in the studio these days, and I have to wear earphones when I'm on stage. This hearing is really..."

When he saw Bianlang, he folded his hands and watched. Dili knew that if Pan Jianhu didn't let Pan Jianhu pretend to be a complete Bian today, then he probably wouldn't get what he wanted.

But he didn't intend to let Pan Jianhu take it easy. He held one hand in a tube shape, then leaned into Pan Jianhu's ear and shouted: "Brother Hu, do you have the score? I want to give it a try!"

The sudden incident, and the fact that Pan Jianhu was still complacent, allowed Li Li to succeed so easily.

Pan Jianhu took two steps back at the roar, and scolded with a smile: "Do you really want me to be deaf? For the sake of your cowardice, Bian Lang, show him the score."

At this time, Bian Lang took action, took the tablet on the music stand and started looking for music.

Hua Yan was not familiar with Li Li, so she didn’t understand which drama she was acting in?
Seeing that Huang Kai was also smiling proudly, he leaned over and asked, "Brother Kaizi, what does this mean?"

Huang Kai put his arm around Hua Yan's shoulders, looked at Dili and said with a smile: "Brother Dili said something many years ago, no one could hit him in the face until today."

Hearing this charming introduction, Hua Yan's curiosity increased even more, and she immediately praised her: "What are you talking about, so awesome?"

“I can’t remember the exact meaning of the original words, but the general meaning is that there is no solo sheet music for these domestic guitarists that he can’t pick up!”
